yeah I meant to mention it the other week to you actually when I got it, cos it made me think of you (being bass heavy!)

The LP is called Pihkasilma Kaarnakorva (1972 - Love records), by Pekka Pohjola - he was bassist on the first few Wigwam LP's - a Finnish prog group led by Englishman, Jim Pembroke. But Pekka split in 72' to make this monster - not sure if its available on CD, but side 2 in particular is full of glorious bass work. Very Canterbury/Zappa at moments with a full on phased Tony Reeves flanged bass tone. Essential!

Thanks very much. Really unusual album that one. Not something I find myself saying very often as I get nearer and nearer the bottom of the early 70s barrel. Just shows there are still some truffles out there in the non Anglo-American world at least. Your recommendation and the new Magma record have pretty much filled my spare listening time so far this week. Oh and I have been really enjoying Spyglass Guest again. A record I never play. Probably because it's NOT in a Dean cover ... I had never registered that Graham Smith plays on it. Great sound that.

I really want a Memotron now.
